The bolts used to hold the weight distribution shank to the head is grade 8 on the Strait-Line Weight Distribution System # RP66082. I went out into our showroom and snapped a pic of what the bolt head to show you that it is a grade 8.
Basically, to determine what the grade is of a bolt you need to count the amount of markings on the bolt and then add 2 to determine the grade. So this bolt has 6 markings which means its a grade 8.
